Anne & I took a little afternoon drive along Lake Huron on this brisk, baren late fall afternoon. We pulled in to a popular summer resort where the town swells from 2,000 population to 50,000 visitors on weekends.

The season has ended, the downtown and beach areas empty, and a kind of doomstown atmosphere embraced the main strip.

My goal was to grab a few simple record shots with straight out of the camera, muted colour and tonality settings to reflect the mood I was seeing.

Interesting, Robert.

I am so sorry for the employees. I guess that a lot of the service industry employees must come from out of town. I wonder why they havent managed to build a long term alternate industry.

Some places have art or music festivals to keep the pulse going. This bleakness is depressing.

The last picture looks like they are worried about an upcoming hurricane!
